THE PREVAILING
TQPIGS OF THE DAY.
PURPORT OP THE WATER COM
PANY'S COMPLAINT.
CONTENTS OF THE INJUNGTION.
That the Injunction JJrl'ectusilly Ties up
tho Ilnmls of tho Jteckless Council,
men There Cannot he n .Shadow of
Doubt What Will They DoT
HERE scorns to be
considerable confl ct
of opinion over the
injunction of the
Sbonandoah "Water
and Gas'Cjrnpany
against the borough,
which was mado per
manent by a decision
of tho Poltsville court on Monday last.
The docision of tho court was very brief, so
tho Herald has resorted to the complain
ant's bill in equity to Rot at the giit of tho
injunction and the facts upon which it is
based.
In their bill the complainants alleged
that the erection of the proposed water
works would Increase the indebtedness of
the borough to an extent far beyond the
two per centum of the aisessod valuation of
the real estate of tho borough; that, in
truth and fact, it wmld incroase tho
indebtedness to upwards of twelve per
centum of the assessed valuation, and that
no olection.by the people had been he'd to
authorize the increase of indebtedness, and
that the said increase was attempted
wholly without warrant of law and without
logal authority.
Too Injunction asked for was that the
Respondents bo restrained from contract
Ing for any machinery or other material
for the purpose of building water works; to
restrain them from authorizing any work
to bo done thereon, In the name of the
borough, and from making, signing, seal
ing, delivering or issuing any bond or
Instrument of writing of any nature what
soever, for or on behalf of tho borough, for
the purpose of erecting any water works
for tho borough.
The Fstther of Many Ills.

good for a time but only for a time, then
my trouble camn back worse than ever,

Took two each night for a week, then ono
